    Surely both. Gramo you have saved me watching it

    Used to hate it but years of brainwashing have taken their toll and now I have an interest but not enough to watch the qualifiers. I record it and watch it on fast forward, usually have no idea whats happened at the end though!

    Brawn GP toyota have showed how much of a diffrence the defuser makes. I wonder what would happen if the FIA decide its illegal, i dont think they will though, well done to Jenson inpole, i love seeing brittish drivers and teams in pole and on the podium in the end, looks like its going to be another belter tomorrow

    Another shocker of a result for Ferrari. The weather may play a major part in what happens tomorrow but if the rain stays off can't really see past Button

    So I take it Lewis Hamilton has a crap car now, or have the others improved?

    the other cars are better than hamiltons at the moment, the cars that take up the first 4 places on the grid have a part that is yet to be decided if it is legal or not and that puts them at an advantage against everyone else, mclaren and hamilton have no doubt had the worst possible start to their 2009 season, with a car lacking pace and downforce. however there is no doubt hamilton is one of the best drivers on the grid but if he doesnt have a competitive car he is at a clear disadvantage. thats why its about both the team and the driver.

    After what happend last week and through the week his confidence has takn a bit of a dip. Heard the team radio conversation from last week the instructions really could not have been clearer then they changer their mind and told him to wait after e had already pulled back.

    his tone and body language said it all at the press confrence when he was apologising for what happened, i agreed with Jordan when he said if Mclaren had told the full story they would have been given 3rd anyway. i cant see mclaren bouncing back from this untill at least spain.

    Thats what I don't get. They must have known that the radio conversations would be listened to?

    i agree, a totally bizarre and stupid decision by mclaren and hamilton

    all they have done is cost themselves what looks to be 6 valuble championship points,

    Race about to start..........looking forward to this.

    Havent felt this way about F1 in years.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

    Others have improved but if you are a regular of F1 you'll know that Hamilton doesn't do well under pressure and he is now 14 points off the pace. Michael Schumacher would have loved today's race because in wet or dry weather this guy was the real deal. Jenson and his new team are flying

    Well done Jenson

    Although I think we haven't heard the correct placings yet....

    There's a hearing in Paris this week to discuss Diffusers which i have a horrible feeling that Brawn GP are gonna get their points deducted

    Anybody see how cagey Toyota were when Martin Brundle was trying to see the back of their car pre-race
